It's also against a volume striker rather than a heavy hitter.You should pay more attention.
It has evolved though. Mckenzitine and the palm on palm have been interesting adaptions.True.
For years the guillotine was seen as ineffective because fighters practiced defending against it all the time and eventually it was no longer an effective weapon so it wasn't worth defending against, only to make a return years later.

With Almeida getting put down like a dog by a counter puncher only months after Aldo getting put down like a dog by McGregor
it feels like this ultra aggressive Brazilian style of faux muay thai striking is at its end
like nick diaz says, muay thai ain't shit when you go up against someone who actually knows boxingAlmeida's mistake was try to box against a boxer instead of using his muay-thai. That and being too passive. It has nothing to do with his style.

Until Almeida was becoming a name, I sincerely thought there wasn't even a Chute Boxe team anymore.Yeah a 24 year old losing in 2016 is the real end of the Chute Boxe team. The actual real end of it years ago wasnt as relevant as this.

Agree, but ,up yours for relating this to putting down a dog, not once...but twice.With Almeida getting put down like a dog by a counter puncher only months after Aldo getting put down like a dog by McGregor
